Life-Linker [PVP/Expert Healing]

Life-Linker build is designed for highly mobile healing within warfronts, though it can also be used successfully for 5 man dungeon healing as well, though I recommend it for use in raids.

I used this build extensively in the early months of Storm Legion whilst ranking up prestige level from 50-80. Anyone on the Euro Cluster who remembers being slaughtered by players like Skarbor or Byona last xmas might remeber this build as the pocket healer that kept those guys up and killing.

Every healing skill used in the spec is instant cast and so the build excels at kiting enemy's whilst healing allies or running objectives.

It takes advantage of AoE splash healing from Marked by the Light and Healer's Breath to give some group wide support healing, but where it excels is as a single target burst healer to both mitigate and heal incoming damage.

FG is a delayed heal, it either triggers when it times out after 10secs or when you trigger it early by using either Loathsome Restoration or Feedback. Applying FG to someone also buffs their hit points by 6% which is a nice bonus.
There are 2 main ways to apply foul growth to someone, either cast it on them directly by using the Explosive Growth skill, or use your DPS abilities which give you a % chance to gain stacks on your linked targets.
When you heal someone with Explosive > Loathsome they will receive 5+ shots of healing, 3 FG's + 1x LR + Healer's Blessing, you'll also splash 2 more small heals onto 2 nearby players with Marked by the Light.

DPS with this spec is never going to be record breaking, but it can still contribute alittle extra in dungeons or pvp when there is no healing needed.

In order of priority you should cast -
Marrow Harvest for the Tenebrious Distortion debuff -
Bond of Pain - trips your crystal bonus and lasts 30s.
Pain Transmission - ideally if both you and your linked players are all within 7m of your target
Siphon vitality
Vex
Somatic Desecration.

Build Variations -

The core of the build is based around 44pt Defiler and 26 pt Sentinel, but this leaves 8 points spare to play with.

So 3rd soul options include -

Justicar for extra HP's
Purifier for symbol of the sun/caregiver's blessing
Warden gives Geyser for a spammable nuke/heal.
Inquisitor for the huge SP booster for max ST healing.

Everyone has different preferences pick yours!

Recommended Addons -

DefilerFG by Adelea available on curse or riftUI, use this to keep track of your FG stacks and who you have linked.
Karuul Alert to give clear warning of when you have been purged!
